Chapter 13: The Future King and Empress
In September 1996, from this time on, it was destined to be a big red and purple star road of hot, and it is now and will be in the future. The banned songs of the pen and fun www.biquge.info have become popular songs that young people are vying to imitate and sing, and the wind of imitation has begun to blow in Seoul in the hot temperature. Lots of students and young people wear hot hairstyles and dress like them. I don't know when it began, hot's pictorials, promotional posters, and graffiti names became ubiquitous. Many of my classmates at school, especially girls, were always holding entertainment magazines with the covers of the HOT Guys. Stickers of hot began to appear on books, stationery, desks, and even toilets. If you see a lot of people wearing headphones, don't think they're learning English, most of them are listening to hot's new album. Hot CDs and cassette tapes have become trendy must-haves, and sometimes a collection poster will become the focus of many people's scramble to watch.
The craze of HOT and the madness of its followers swept through Korea because of the popularity of "Candy". From the debut of "Kim Hyun-joon's Interview" to the singing on major stages, the honor won surpassed the popular title song "Descendants of Warriors" in a short period of time. It was only at this time that Xu Chanhao really experienced the frenzy of Korean fans. At school, after class, there are many students who imitate hot dances in the hallway, and the most talked about topics are hot, magazines and newspapers, and as long as there are hot photos, they will carefully crop them like treasures. On the street, as long as there is a stereo in the store, the songs played are bound to be hot, among which "Candy" is the most. Moreover, Xu Canhao found that there were many more people # of students on the way back, so one day, Xu Canhao followed curiously and found the destination ---- An Shenghao's home. (Because of the addition of Xu Canhao, HOT's debut publicity is bigger than original.) The main funds were invested in radio stations and posters, and the number of tapes and CDs increased in the later stage. )
In December, the far-reaching "Pescama Murder" finally came to fruition. This verdict has pushed the continuous demonstrations and verbal criticism of China (ethnic Koreans) and South Korea to the peak in the past few months, and it has the same momentum as when Kim Moumou died of illness in 94. Since June, Seo Chan-ho has been following this development with a close eye on the whole story, but he can only express his resentment and contempt for the South Koreans in his heart, and occasionally verbally curse the authorities. For the annual demonstrations and countless small marches, Xu Chanhao has also become accustomed to the emotional naivety country of South Korea. "Fake democracy, fake openness, and real inferiority", this is Xu Canhao's perception of South Korea now. From the ruling cabinet to the common people, they are imitating the model of a great power in a nondescript manner, but they still want to trumpet on and off the stage how progressive the country is, that the economy is about to catch up with so-and-so, and that cultural preservation and inheritance are stronger than so-and-so. However, none of this is the children's business, and at this time there is a lot of noise outside, and the same is true of the practice room.
"Rough card, rough card Amida (congratulations, congratulations)!"
"SBS Newcomer Award winner! The album is a big hit! ”
The practice room of HOT was noisy at this time, of course, not to celebrate the upcoming New Year, but to celebrate Moon Hee-jun, who won the award.
"Komawoyo (thank you / courtesy of the peers)." Several people from HOT thanked Cui Shengxi and the girls who congratulated him, and drank all the drinks in the cup.
"Zazz, I really didn't know that the company was so stingy, and there was no celebration banquet, and we had to buy these things ourselves." Tony grumbled as he ate the fried chicken wings.
"Hyong, if you hadn't won the prize, it would be almost the Spring Festival, and you would still be practicing! Be content. Lee Jae-won was refilling the cups of several people when he heard Tony's words.
Xu Canhao looked at them with a smile but thought in his heart: 'Alas, if you can still persist for your dreams now, how far can you go in the near future?' I really didn't know that these artists were so tired and bitter, and I didn't know how many of them could go home for the New Year. I really don't know what Li Xiuman thinks, what kind of mystery does the artist maintain, isn't it better to be close to the people, and wouldn't more contact with fans be able to stabilize the status of idols? I really can't figure it out, crowded in this practice room with no heating in winter and no air conditioning in summer, hey...' Xu Canhao thought about some questions randomly, and the empty appearance was noticed by Jin Liuzhen beside him.
"What are the heroes of Wuli thinking, come and have a drink with your sister, your sisters will have to ask you for songs when they make their debut in the future!" Jin Liuzhen held the paper cup and said to Xu Canhao with a smile like a flower.
"Ah, Nei, Ryu Shinxi." Xu Canhao, who reflected, hurriedly turned sideways, held the hand holding the cup with his left hand, and respectfully clinked glasses with it. Counting that this is the second time the two have met, Xu Canhao naturally classifies her as an unfamiliar person, and behaves very well.
"Cut." Jin Liuzhen took back the cups that he was about to touch, gave him a big look, shook his head and said, "Ah, I said haeng (student), you call the two of them nula, you call me mo?" Kanyanagi Shinxi?! Ah, qin.jia..."Jin Yanagi pretended to be speechless, holding the back of his neck and pretending to be angry.
Xu Canhao was also bluffed for a while, did not react, and quickly apologized.
"Ha~Oni, look at the way he looks. I was completely speechless, I really didn't see what was funny about him. Jin Yoo Jin took Cui Shengxi's arm and said.
"Hehe, Chan Hao, it's not like you today! Don't be so rigid, call Sister Liu Zhen, otherwise this sister will be really angry. Cui Shengxi laughed at Xu Canhao.
Xu Canhao was also a little speechless, it was the first time he was said to be rigid, so he stopped being hypocritical, and sweetly called Lula to Jin Liuzhen, who had a straight face.
"Omo, wu.li. (our brother) really listens to Sister Cui!" Jin Liuzhen grabbed Xu Canhao's face with both hands and retaliated **.
"Ahhh Jin Liuzhen didn't care about Xu Canhao's shouting, he simply sat up straight, faced Xu Canhao head-on, and rubbed his face round and flattened.
"Ah, ke.man.lei (enough)! Ahsie, ha.ji.ma.gu (don't do that again)! "Xu Canhao is a little hot, this sister is really addicted, when I am dough!
"Hehe, okay, okay, Liu Zhen, just let this kid go. He likes to be empty sometimes, not intentionally. Our Chan Ho is a very interesting and talented younger brother. Moon Hee-jun came to the rescue and pulled Kim Yoo-jin's raging hands away. said to the sullen and speechless Xu Canhao: "Canhao, don't mind, don't you usually like to make trouble." Yoo is really like this, sometimes like a boy..."
"Ah, obba! What are you talking about! Kim Yoo Jin patted Wen Hee-jun on the back and glanced at him.
"Hehe, look, that's right. She has lived in the United States, and she is very arrogant, don't care, you will know after getting along for a long time, she is a very cheerful sister. Come, let's all have a drink together!" Moon Hee-jun patted Seo Chan-ho, handed him the cup, and then motioned for everyone to clink glasses together.
"Long live ka.za, friendship!" Moon Hee-joon.
"Long live friendship!" The crowd shouted in unison.
"Chan Hao, how's your voice?" Kangta sat down next to Xu Canhao with a plate of dried squid and asked.
"It's not good, it's a little dumb. I'm really afraid that this will be the voice in the future. Xu Canhao looked at the only hot façade who didn't dye his hair, and said worriedly.
"What are you afraid of, even if you don't sing, you can dominate the stage when you dance!" Jang You-hyuk also leaned over and put his arms around the necks of the two. This brother is usually gentle and shy, but once he gets acquainted, he is also crazy, and he didn't drink at this time, and his face was flushed with excitement. "Come on, Chan-ho, let my brother see if there are any new dance moves." After saying that, he jumped up and ran over to turn on the tape recorder in the practice room.
Xu Canhao stood up with a smile, walked up to Jin Liuzhen, bent down and stretched out his hand, and made a gentleman's invitation to dance. "Sister Liu Zhen, can I have the honor to dance with you?" Jin Liuzhen swallowed the rice cake in his mouth, held his chin high without showing fear, and stretched out his right hand to put it on Xu Canhao's palm.
"Oh, oh!" The others shouted in unison.
"Sister Liu Zhen, will you know Rumba?" Xu Canhao leaned into the ear of Jin Liuzhen, who was standing facing him, and asked.
Jin Liuzhen stepped back slightly, his face slightly unnatural. She is a good American, but she also has the traditional complex of Korean women. "Can we jump in this suit? And this music is not suitable, huh? Jin Liuzhen just returned to his original state all of a sudden, stared at Xu Canhao's eyes and said. Thinking about this, I also fell into the same embarrassment as Cui Shengxi at the beginning. Enigmatic eyes, this is Kaninagi's first feeling. Inside, there are countless mirrors extending into the depths, and there are countless pieces of self here, and the endless magic makes Jin Yanyu Jin fall into this world that makes him curious.
"Sister Liu Zhen, it's about to start." 'Again, are my eyes really that attractive?' Xu Canhao thought proudly, not forgetting to wake up Jin Liuzhen, who had lost his mind.
"Ahh Oh. Jin Liuzhen subconsciously lowered his head because of shyness, complaining about his incompetence. muttered a few words in a low voice, raised his head again, cocked his delicate little chin, but his eyes refused to look at Xu Canhao's face.
Xu Canhao chuckled silently, one hand on her waist. This action made Jin Liuzhen nervous for a while, and the muscles in his waist tightened in an instant, and he couldn't help frowning. Xu Canhao felt the shaking of the hand holding Jin Liu Zhenrou, and involuntarily clenched his palm. Jin Liuzhen glanced at Xu Canhao, didn't know what to think, relaxed his body, and said to Xu Canhao: "You have to take me with you, I'm not very good." ”
"Don't worry, singing and dancing are the same, as long as the feelings are integrated, you can naturally find the feeling." Xu Canhao whispered to Jin Liuzhen, who was expressionless.
"What are you two going to dance? I'm asking you to compare yourself to me. Jang Woo-hyuk turned on the music, a hiphop-style dance music blended with simple electronic instruments.
"Brother, don't you want to see freshness, let you see and understand today." Xu Canhao turned his head and gave Zhang Youhe a big confident smile.
Xu Canhao let go of Jin Liuzhen, slid away with a sliding step, and danced a tap to the rhythm of the dance music, and at the same time his hands were not idle, and the locking was amplified and kept changing tricks. When the drum beat is highlighted, it is replaced by a mechanical dance. The tune suddenly became brighter, and Xu Canhao's range of movements also changed, jumping up Cha Cha, twisting his waist and shaking his head, and stretched out his hand to Jin Liuzhen in the distance. Jin Liuzhen looked at Xu Canhao in surprise, but his body was not slow to react. One leg was on tiptoe, his body turned in a circle in the air, and his hands opened one after the other, just grabbing Xu Canhao's hand. Xu Canhao always maintained a casual smile on his face, took Jin Liuzhen's plain hand, took the opportunity to take the belt in his arms, and hugged Jin Liuzhen in front of him. The two made eye contact briefly, and immediately separated, quickly turning their heads, their bodies apart, pulling their hands together, lifting their hips and bending over and raising their heads. The two dance fast and slow, and their hand movements are wide open and closed. Xu Canhao held Jin Liuzhen's hand to complete a whole turn, held her in his arms, and reminded loudly: "Hip movements are bigger." Pay attention to expressions and feelings. Xu Canhao spoke quickly, but it clearly reached Jin Liuzhen's ears. **The posture and embarrassing words made Jin Liuzhen feel that his face was like fire, and his eyes unconsciously began to escape Xu Canhao's compelling gaze. Xu Canhao didn't have so much heart to observe her changes, and with a sideways step, he threw out the hot man in his arms. (Xu Canhao's Chacha, Rumba, and Latin were all learned from Jiang Zhixiao.) )
Jin Liuzhen was a little flustered by this sudden surprise, staggered to his feet, and glared at Xu Canhao with a little anger. saw Xu Canhao surrounding him, stepping on strange steps rhythmically.
Jang Woo-hyuk didn't know when he had already sat down with Moon Hee-jun and them, staring at the two of them with bright eyes. "Look, Toprock, it's coming, there's a big move!" Jang Woo-hyuk excitedly slapped Lee Jae-won's crossed legs, Lee Jae-won smiled helplessly, but his eyes did not leave the field. "Airflare, it's Airflare!" Jang Woo-hyuk shouted nervously.
"Ah, Hyong, can't you say something we can understand?!" An Qixuan patted Jang Youhyuk behind his back and complained to him, and Cui Shengxi and the others also looked at him with dissatisfaction. Jang Youhyuk impatiently shouted at several people: "Look for yourself! Then his eyes returned to Xu Canhao, as if he was talking to himself: "This is called a big roundabout, and the difficulty is not ordinary." I don't know how long it can take... Yes! "I don't know who threw an empty water bottle, and the end of the lid hit Jang Youhyuk's head. Zhang Youhe covered his head and turned around angrily, but he was hit more head-on, and the tissues, potato chips, disposable chopsticks, cups, and saucers that wiped his mouth smashed at him.
At this time, Jin Liuzhen only had Xu Canhao flying in his eyes, from the initial worry and nervousness to excitedly counting the number of laps in the round, until twelve, Xu Canhao stopped. To be precise, I lost my strength, and in the end, I completed the action with the support of my will, my back landed on the ground, and I couldn't get up on my back on the ground.
"Ah, Chan-ho, can.cai.yo (Are you okay?! Jin Liuzhen covered his mouth with one hand, knelt beside Xu Canhao, and asked nervously.
"Hehe, it's okay, it's just that I don't have the strength. I did two more than last time, hehe, not bad. Xu Canhao looked at the ceiling and smiled stupidly, every breakthrough made him extremely happy. Although his heart is big, he is easily satisfied in some small things, such as now, gathering with a group of future big star friends, and hooking up with the idols he once chased, which is enough to make him feel that he has no regrets in this life.
Zhang Youhe and others also came up, and they were relieved to see that Xu Canhao was fine. "Chan Hao, teach this to my brother, it's so handsome! I didn't expect you to dance so much, wow, our brother is really, really amazing! If you are an artist, you must be a superstar. ”
"Eh, Sicolu (shut up). Every time! Xu Canhao and several others shouted at Jang Youhyuk in unison.
"Ah, Chanhao, don't call him the king of dances in the future, call him a dancing idiot, it's okay to be a fool. is usually sullen, but at this time he starts to shoot some nonsensical sycophants. Ah, really. Tony pointed to the depressed Jang Woo-hyuk and said.
"Ah, monkey, are you hurting us together?!" Xu Canhao sat up and shook his head with Tony's two big ears. If this is seen by Mrs. An (as Tony fans call her), it is estimated that Xu Canhao will not have to go out.
"Hehe, I think Chan Ho is more like a teacher, sometimes he teaches singing, he teaches dancing, and he also tells Brother Hee Joon how to compose music and play the piano." The cute Liu Xiuying, who was wearing a white pullover hoodie, said with a smile on the side, holding Cui Shengxi with a pair of small hands.
"Oh? Are you sure! Ho ho~ So, everyone, from today onwards, please officially bow to my door! Xu Canhao pretended to be an ancient, sat cross-legged on the top position, shook his sleeves with both hands, put them on his knees, and said in a majestic tone to everyone with slightly squinted eyes.
Cui Shengxi stepped forward and pushed back hard with a finger on his forehead, "Eh, get it." After saying that, he gave him a blank look.
Then Wen Xijun pushed his head with the palm of his hand, and followed Cui Shengxi to learn: "Eh, Xi." After speaking, he held his forehead and looked speechless.
Jin Liuzhen also repeated their movements, and when it was over, a few fingers teased under Xu Canhao's chin like a puppy.
Seeing that the remaining people were also coming, Xu Canhao quickly stood up and retreated to the wall, and said to a few people with a fierce expression: "Ah, you guys are enough!" I'll fight back if I come over again, especially you, Jin Yoo-jin. That's right, it's you! Do you want to come back a second time while hiding there!? The few people who were about to come up were stunned by Xu Canhao's reaction, but immediately swarmed up under the leadership of "Sister Cui" and suppressed Xu Canhao gorgeously.
The party lasted from morning to four or five o'clock in the afternoon, and everyone who couldn't leave the company went crazy in the practice room for a day. Although the company gave the members of HOT two days off, they couldn't go out, and they didn't have a holiday to go home when the New Year was approaching. Moreover, the explosive popularity of hot during this period made Li Xiuman crazy to collect money, taking advantage of the golden period of New Year's Eve, the itinerary for hot was arranged until mid-March next year, and it can be said that he had thought about anything in the middle. Shooting print magazines, advertising endorsements, planning and producing new albums, appearing on programs, etc., 24 hours a day. During this period, Seo Chan-ho became a hot errand boy, to be precise, Lee Jae-won, Moon Hee-jun, and Tony. The parents of the three of them can't go to S.M's company often, so they often ask Xu Canhao to help the five of them deliver food and clothing. And he is often blocked by fans at the door of the company, when he is considered an artist, when he is asked to give gifts to his brothers as a staff member, and he is even suspected of being Li Xiuman's son. During that time, Xu Canhao was always talking about asking for compensation, and in the end, a few people who were annoyed and helpless gave Xu Canhao a lot of signed posters, CDs, clothes, etc., and asked him to take them to deal with by himself, and Xu Canhao stopped. Afterwards, Xu Canhao sold all the things he got to his classmates and made a small fortune.
